Hi from new PB user

Post by coco2 »

Hello everyone I'm new to PB. I tried the trial and liked it straight away and purchased the full version. I started programming on Microsoft Color Basic 1.1 on the CoCo 2 :) then used QBasic with MSDOS. I stopped programming for a long time since I hated how bloated Microsoft products had become and didn't really like other languages since I had been programming BASIC from early childhood. I recently noticed PureBASIC and was instantly ready to start coding again. I have a question, are the developers English speaking and do they read this forum?

Hi and welcome
I remember the TRS-80 color (the first one), I saw one here in Italy at a computer expo when I was very young :)
So many different computers at time, all unique and all incompatible with each other, good old times !

Hmm, let's see by browsing the forums a bit:

If it sounds simple, you have not grasped the complexity.
